Michelle is a talented painter and we are excited to have her showcase her paintings.With her past education at the graphic design school in Valletta as well as under several artists locally and abroad, Michelle Gialanze (aka Mixa) plans her work with research and then paints, with her textured oil paintings resulting in an impressionistic symbolic style that also have underlying meanings closely associated to the text she would have written in her research.Michelle has had several collective exhibitions, culminating in her first solo in May 2019 'Hidden' which was a resounding success. This was then followed by an exhibition in London titled 'Momentum', where she used several perspectives of a singular instance to create a visual image of the moment. She has done this through a layering technique which highlights a personal narrative she created on her grandmother. This was followed by several other exhibitions in Malta and her paintings may be found in many private collections located in Malta, Germany, France, United Kingdom, America and the Caribbean Islands.
She has extensive experience within the field of education and art. Her professional research studies have included the way people change their practices. In addition, Michelle is a professional artist and has exhibited in London, UK and Malta. She gained her Ph.d from the University of Nottingham.During the past years Michelle has worked as the head of the school of languages of the University of Malta, started her own business by opening her own vocational school and a consultant to the Minister of Education in Malta. She has sat on several boards including chairing the get qualified board which administers huge funds for education.
